KETER City 30-Gallon Resin Patio Outdoor Deck Box Review
KETER City 30 gallon deck box is an inexpensive solution if you need a place to store patio cushions or other belongings outside.
Quality
KETER City 30 gallon deck box is made of weather-resistant polypropylene resin. Body panels are thin and feel quite flimsy. Even hinges are made of plastic.
Once you assemble the deck box it does feel sturdier than you might have anticipated after first impressions of thin,, flexible panels but it’s still not something you would call heavy duty – assembled box still feels flimsy. It’s sturdy enough for storing belongings but it feels cheap if you actually touch it or apply pressure.
Keter claims deck box can also be used to seating with weight capacity of 220 pounds – it can handle 180 lb person sitting on it but it doesn’t feel sturdy enough that you would actually feel safe to so you really shouldn’t.
Weatherproofness
KETER City 30 gallon deck box actually seems to be pretty water resistant. It will keep items dry at least most of the time.
Features
KETER City 30 gallon deck box has ventilated interior, built in handle and and can be locked with a pad lock although it doesn’t come with one.
Since the box isn’t particularly strong the pad lock won’t do much to keep your belongings safe – it won’t be too hard for someone to break the deck box if they really want to but doing so will cause some noise which in some situations might keep thieves away.
Assembly
KETER City 30 gallon deck box is very simple to assemble and can be done in minutes. You just snap pieces together – no tools required.
Conclusions
KETER City 30 gallon deck box is inexpensive product and it shows – the quality is far from best and the box feels cheap. However if you are looking for inexpensive solution for storing your belongings it should be up to task despite subpar quality.
